[QUOTE="OkieJoe72, post: 3702742, member: 48447"] I’ve built two similar cabins for rent income. The first one that was built is about 20 years old, and I used the pine split log siding. It’s been my experience that the pine does not hold up well when exposed to direct sunlight. Three sides of the cabin are shaded most of the day, but the back is exposed to the morning sun. I re-stain/seal about every 2 years, but I’ve had to replace several of the “logs” on that backside. It looks like yours is mostly shaded which will definitely help prolong the life. The second cabin has cedar lap and gap siding and it is exposed to sunlight pretty much all day. It’s about 10 years old now, and the cedar is definitely holding up better. You have a very nice looking cabin, and it definitely looks like it was built right! I just wanted to let you know about my experience with the split log siding. Hope you get many years of enjoyment with it! [/QUOTE]
